Good afternoon!

We are all happy to be back after the craziness of yesterday!  Sorry again for any issues that may have caused.  We started off the day today working on sentence writing.  The students used their weekly spelling words and turned them into proper sentences for house points.  After spelling the children worked on language where they explored root words and suffixes and finished sentences.  We read another chapter of Charlotte's Web today called Uncle.  In our IB unit of Inquiry today we read a book all about energy after doing a unit review.  The children had a great time learning lots of interesting facts about the types and uses of energy.  They wrote a summary of what they learned in their journals.  Ask your child tonight to tell you what they learned!  During math today the students worked on finding the cores of patterns (grade one) and completing word problems (grade two).  They also went to french and music classes.

Homework:  Read for 15 minutes and record in the reading chart, practice weekly spelling words, cursive page74- 75 and math page 102 - 103.

Important information:  I want to remind all parents that agendas should be read and signed each and every night.  Students will get stickers and house points for agendas that have been read and signed.  Please help me to make sure that homework is being completed and important information is being communicated.

Many forms and pieces of information came home with your child tonight.  Please keep you eye out for any or all of the following forms- after-school care forms, class pictures, contact update forms, scholastic book order forms, piano sign-up forms, and dance class sign-up forms.  Please send back the forms that are required back at school (scholastic if desired, contact information forms, and after-school care forms) as soon as possible.

Best regards,

Mrs. Nelson
